ok sorry no other pics. but you all were on it right from the start.  the track is a lynx one of four sets I found and a big one to boot.  the poop is a otter landing, I wish I could get a better pic of it as it was tore up.  both animal are fair game here.  I wish I could say that it was a wolverine but I cant.  but a big tom would be pretty cool to arrow.  I have arrowed otters before and you better put em down otherwise you will need scuba gear and a ice auger to begin to look for them.
thanks for playing

very cool. I saw my first lynx track in NF this year. Would love to get to hunt them!!

That's cool.  Don't have lynx in Kansas, but bobcats are around. I've seen that track before just not even close to as big.

guspup it does look like a rear rabbit but I think it is the angle that it is in the snow and may have made some imprint with its leg, the snow was quite rotten and the tracks were a few inches deep

Cool. On a trapping forum I frequent. I seen some of them skinned from the Alaskan trapline forum and there is not much to them after he hide is off. They look bigger but they are all fur. Lol

Yep' those Lynx can be a mean cat. We have lots of them here, too many as far as I'm concerned. The rabbit population is the lowest I've ever seen and the grouse aren't doing much better. You can't hunt them here, you have to be a trapper and even then your quota is next to nothing. They will take small deer as well. The otters are also on the increase and will make short work of any small trout ponds in the area. Our "Ministry of Natural Resources" have been WAAAAAY out to lunch with  what really goes on in the woods      

ill be putting some effort in this area. I have had some moderate success trapping here. wolves lynx and otter.  but have spent more money and time than its worth. so why not try to just hunt em.  Canadian would you use cat lure around a bow set up or maybe a flagger or ten?

idle your bunnies and grouse will be up quicker than they fell.
